Anonymous, 22 Jun 2009can you say how hid you install edgeThis article will show you how to enable EDGE for free on your Motorola A1200 Ming. To do so, you will first need to download RadioComm and install it. You will also need the script Edge.tcs (download and extract it anywhere).

What is EDGE?

EDGE, short for Enhanced Data GSM Environment, is a faster version the GSM wireless service designed to deliver data at rates up to 3 times faster (at 384 Kbps) and enable the delivery of multimedia and other broadband applications to mobile devices. EDGE upon the GSM standard, using the same frame structure and existing cell arrangements.

Enabling EDGE on Motorola A1200

In order to turn on Edge you need to follow the below instructions.


Part 1. Getting RadioComm to recognize your Motorola A1200:

Start RadioComm. It will display a settings window. Enter MA = GSM and Settings = M-Link USB driver
You should now see the main RadioComm panel. It should have a red “Radio Detection” button on the top right and you should see a Red square down in the taskbar icons area. When these turn green this indicates that the progam has detected the phone (radio) correctly.
Close RadioComm.
Turn on your phone and go to Setup, USB mode and select Modem.
Connect your A1200 to PC via a USB cable and start RadioComm again.
Change the connection mode to USB if the software asks for it.
When your phone is detected for the first time, a prompt may appear asking to install drivers. Select Yes and install the drivers. This will repeat around 20, there is nothing wrong.
You might have to reboot the system after all drivers are installed and restart RadioComm.
When it has detected the phone correctly, the Radio Detection button on the right turns green.
.

Part 2. Enable EDGE on your Motorola A1200

To the far right you will see several buttons, click the one labeled as Setup Button.
A window will pop-up, press the Browse button and select the Edge.tcs file downloaded earlier.
Label it something like Enable EDGE it’s only for your own reference, and click the button label SET.
When done, close that window. You should now have a new button labeled the way you named it in the previous step.
Click on the button to run the script. A series of log results should be displayed in the big white window. The last one should say Complete.
Exit RadioComm, unplug the phone and restart it.
Assuming EDGE is available from your provider and you have completed every step listed above, you should see an E instead of a G on the status bar. If you still see a G, it means that EDGE is not available.

Hi,

I had Motorola A1200 Ming for about 6 months and I just sold it, now getting SE M600i. A1200 is really good,but there are couple of features that I found that sucked. The headset volume not so good, the speaker is sort of ok kind. The menu speed is pretty fast. The web browsing is sort of slow, the screen size is kinda small so it is hard to text with specially if you have a small touchscreen keypad. It is impossible to text while you are moving or in a bus, the dailing pad is not to bad. The fornt hearing speaker is really loud and can head clearly. The good side of the phone is the camera, smsing, watching movies (quailty is sort of bad), games, see through lense etc.

Nice phone overall...but the flip ribbon breaks easily, the touch screen constantly needs calibration and the voice command seems not to understand english.
Good concept the execution is poor, there is another thing the OS is always hanging up.

Bassi, 09 Feb 2009I love my A1200, but the battery life really sux's... I eve... moreOk everyone!!!! This phone is great! I love it! I will say this if your battery life is short then try charing your phone every night! I have this addiction to texting and the more you text the faster your battery life will disappear....if that doesn't work then you might want to take it back to your provider and talk to them about it!

Cell phones aren't suppose to go three days on one battery life, stop being stupid! Charge your phone!!!!
